We Need a Medieval Expansion Pack!

I would so love a Sims 4 Medieval Pack with Camelot & Vikings.

Yes to this!?

Only if they can program the locals to stay in their own world. I hate that Sulanians invade the Willow Creek library (and everywhere else of course)! This is the problem with period worlds.
They should at least give us the tools to build our own Medieval setting.

I would personally make use of this, as I love historical gameplay (and do have a spellcaster/medieval/Harry Potter-themed save that I play regularly) but I think it'd conflict a lot with all of the other modern expansions. It ruins the immersion when a sim dressed in a band t-shirt and a mini skirt comes running onto the lot with her phone, when you're trying to play in the 1500's :P

At least (for the most part) every other pack has fit in nicely with the rest. A Medieval one would just be so incredibly different and would be better off as a stand-alone game.

Mods and custom content can definitely help in the meantime though. I have an entire folder dedicated to medieval gameplay that I just take out whenever I'm not in that save, so I don't have townies in my other games coming in with full blown ballgowns or knight outfits.

I'd prefer it if the dragons could be tamed and ridden. I'm so tired of games in which dragons are the bad guys, or monsters to kill.

I agree. My idea to explain and get around this would be instead of having an actual medieval world, have a renaissance fair world where people come to experience what medieval life was like. The only downside would be in order to keep it contained it would have to be a destination world, which would be tough because it would be nice to live there, but otherwise you'd have people in costume wandering around all the worlds.

But you could have sims learn blacksmithing, archery, and swordplay/fencing. They could buy a butter churner to make their own butter, there could be festivals like jousting or tests of strength, and they could even bring back the fortune teller. Maybe your sims could be proclaimed king or queen for the day if they win a lot of contests or get thrown into the stocks for losing or causing trouble.

Honestly, I think there is a lot of potential in a pack like this and I hope they make something like this someday.

I would definitely buy that pack. It would be good if a dress code could be assigned to the world somehow. However, it would need to be something more than the magic world. I'd want it to have several different lots.

for those who want to play an accurate medieval life for their sims,

I doubt they'd ever create anything accurate. It would be a ren-fair fantasy version of the sims.


Case in point:

Personally, I'd like an EP, that allows your sims to step through a portal to historical versions of each of the worlds.

Eg
Early 1800's willow creek (Antibellum)
Late 1800's Oasis Springs (Wild west)
Iron age Granite Falls (Viking/early medieval)
1300's Windenburg (Late Medieval)
1700's Forgotten Hollow (Rococo)
1950's Magnolia Promenade (Mid century/rock'n'roll)
1500's Britechester (Tudor/Renaissance)
Late 1600's Sulani (Late Renaissance/Pirates!)

A big problem to this would be the same as it was in S3., the way the game dresses townies. It really breaks the atmosphere to be playing an old time period and have townies walking around in mini skirts and swim tops.
